Green plants provide beta-carotene, which provides vitamin A to a goat's diet. Boer goats store vitamin A in the liver, using the reserved vitamin when lacking greens in the diet. Vitamin D is absorbed through the skin of the goat while being outdoors. Sun-cured hay is a good source of providing vitamin D in the diet.
What do goats eat? Pasture or Hay (90-100% of their diet) â Pasture is fresh land that is filled with lots of various grasses & weeds. Grain â (0-10% of their diet) â Goats donât need grain to survive, in fact, they can live happily on pasture or hay, or a combination of both. Itâs my opinion that because our soil is depleted of minerals, goats need grains in order to thrive.
